Brain dumps
"Using brain dumps is unethical" ... While I agree, this statement appears to be opinion vs. fact. Should it be re-worded?
 * Perhaps restate it to say that "Cisco has stated that passing the test via "brain dump" or rote is discouraged and can be considered as unethical". If you can find a source to back the statement up, of course ;-). Steven Plunkett 22:41, 11 December 2005 (UTC)


 * I'm taking CCNA right now, and I don't understand what a brain dump is. Is it when you study the night before the exam? paat 20:14, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

"Brain dumps"
People have been rampantly using brain dumps to pass the test. Using brain dumps is discouraged and is often seen as a form of cheating, nonetheless many have used it to gain their certifications, and they are popular when studying for an exam. There are companies that offer 100% pass guarantee, but those claims are just that.. claims. This has not been proven.

It is very difficult to complete the CCNA exam using only a "brain dump", due to the time restrictions and exam score required, as well as the exam topics changing at a varied pace.

3 courses
isnt there 3 courses neeeded for your CCNA certification? Maybe we should add them paat 01:53, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
